Badija Island Romantic Vacations

There are a couple of very important points you need to be aware of before booking this property. 1) You need to be able to climb 46 steep steps with your luggage to reach the first room - luckily we were in Apt 12, which appeared to be the nearest to street level. Not sure what we would have done if our room was lower numbered as it’s a big ask for a nearly 70 year old couple to manage that. 2) Unless I’m mistaken, this is not really a hotel in any sense, but a series of apartments. On the plus side, the room was very clean (the cleaner helped us store our luggage there at 10:00 a.m. as we had just finished our cruise) and cleaned the room and made it available from 11:00 which was very kind). The air conditioning was excellent and so was the shower. Needed more pillows (just one each). Dubrovnik is clearly a very expensive city as the price for this room is pretty staggering all things considered.

Hotel was lovely, excellent facilities and very helpful and friendly staff. The pool was also great but very busy and not enough sun beds to accommodate the demand, however their deck chairs on the rocks and the sunbeds beside the harbour also provided great options. It's in quite a hilly location so need to accept a bit of an uphill walk back or wait for the buggies. Breakfast was very good also. Would definitely recommend.

Edina was a wonderful host and their restaurant was amazing. Would recommend to all couples visiting the old town!

Fantastic views from the balcony! Apartment super clean and well equipped if you wanted to make a quick meal. Walkable to the Old Town and the beaches. I would stay here again and would recommend to all my friends.

We stayed at the Dubrovnik palace for a few days before moving to the royal blue. The property at the palace is wonderful but the staff , food, rooms and experience is much better at the royal blue

This is a beautiful property with amazing views, and the staff is outstanding. Some cautions around stairways, etc., and uneven surfaces, which may post a tripping hazard for some.

Hosts were GREAT and bathrooms and kitchen were very clean. We did not use parking as it was not a long walk to the old town (15 minutes) and to the closest beach (Banje beach-10 minute or less) and there is a small market and bar along the way; the VIEW from the balconies (one off the living area and master bedroom, and another one off of the second bedroom) is STUNNING. The hot pot and coffee machine were great as we sat on the balcony sipping our morning drink. The welcoming wine and snacks were put to good use! The drying rack on the balcony was great to dry our swim gear. Everything worked and it was a great value, but if you need to do any kind of business while there, be advised that the wifi while we were there was not reliable and only available in a small area of the apartment. It would have been impossible for us to do any kind of school or other work on wifi from the apartment-we have let the owners know so hopefully it will improve. This is NOT a fancy place; it is no-frills. It has what you need and nothing you don't. Beds were comfortable, but not lush, but we weren't looking for that. For the location, cleanliness, convenience, and ease of use, I would stay again for a few days, and even longer if the wifi was fixed.

The A?C was non existent. It was too hot in the rooms and the restairant. Our rooms smelled very badly. The breakfast was good. Most of the staff were great.
